Rich-Sounding Mahogany Body

Housing your EC-1000 EverTune's bridge and pickups is a warm, dark, and resounding mahogany body. Mahogany bodies will emphasize plenty of low and middle frequencies, fueling your signal with loads of depth and resonance. Your strings will also harness a lingering sustain that invites anticipation with every hold. This axe's sleek eclipse body shape has an attractive visual appeal, boasting a sharp cutaway gives you plenty of access to those higher frets.

Comfortable Mahogany Neck and Buttery Rosewood Fingerboard

Resting in your hand like a comfy glove is this baby's sturdy mahogany neck. This melodious appendage is cut into a super-snug thin U shape that's easy to wrap your hand around, and a smooth and buttery rosewood fingerboard boasts 24 extra jumbo frets with unbelievable action. Your fingers will love this neck the instant they experience its lightning-speed playability and all-around cozy feel.

EMG 81/60 Active Humbucker Combo

Taking in every aspect of your playing is this guitar's EMG 81 and EMG 60 active humbuckers. Your EMG 60 at the neck forges a thick sound full of body and presence and projects your signal out as a wall of tone eager to fly through your amplifier. Your EMG 81 at the bridge dishes out a brighter and edgier tone that slices through the air like a knife -- perfect for wailing solos and addicting syncopated rhythmic chugs. The 81/60 combo makes a perfect pair for soul-shattering metal or rock tone.

The Amazing All-Mechanical EverTune Bridge

The crowning jewel on your LTD EC-1000 EverTune is its reliable and secure EverTune bridge. You won't find another system that keeps your strings in check as well as this baby does. A system of springs and levers work together to keep your strings in constant tension for unending intonation and unbeatable sustain. You can bend your strings further and strum even harder without having to worry about losing your tonal footing. Spend less time tuning and more time rocking when you plug in this sweet ESP LTD axe!

"Blown away."

Sound:
The EMG pickups provide amazing sound whether playing clean tones or distorted riffs. I play it through a Peavey Triple XXX head with a Mesa Boogie 4x12 cab with no effects and it sounds awesome.
Feature:
The best feature is, by far, the Evertune bridge. It works so well that I rarely have to tune now. It's like black magic.
Ease of Use:
The Evertune bridge takes a bit to get used to but, once you do, it's quite simple to use.
Quality:
This is a solid guitar. I've played quite a few shows with it and it still looks and sounds brand new.
Overall:
This is a phenomenal guitar and I highly recommend it.
